Come on lads n lasses, surely someone can help me out?

Nothing

I'm in Stanley, County Durham. I was 39 years young yesterday. Any experience would be greatly received.

Asked a couple of times now and come close, but nothing as yet. I've got s cracking little Russel who I would love to try on some rats. If anyone is able to offer me some advice and a day out I'd be much appreciative. Always living in hope.

Yeah and trying to get help/advice/days out is like finding hens teeth half the time.

County Durham mate.

He hasn't no. I'm new to field sport so take my days/night's where I can matey. It's hard to find folk who will help out and offer advice/time out.

Alright it's not "wimpy", but you know how they get...all moody and shit . He had a right face on after the drive up. I know he's still young and he clearly knows what to do, just need some time and patience. It's not like he didn't have a go and he did get one on his first night out.

Gunnar had his first night on the lamp last weekend. Mixed attempt, but at least he showed some promise. Nothing that a bit of work can't sort out. He's a bad traveller and a bit of a wimp (Saluki trait) so wasn't happy about the long car journey with two other more dominant bitches so that wasn't a great start. He watched 2 slips and we brought the rabbits back for him to smell and rag on but he didn't seem interested at all. On the third one of the lads suggested slipping him to see if he would double up or show interest...slipped him and nothing...for about 3 seconds and then off he we

Last time I measured him he was 23.5 tts. He's a bit big, but yes he does still squash my Russell. Thanks for the kind remarks, can't wait to see him run as he is one fast puppy dog.

Just a quick update on young Gunnar. He's come on a treat and is a great dog to own. Very...Saluki like with his temprament and attitude, so basically huffy when he gets wrong :-). Hoping to get him out and about this season, had a couple of offers for days/nights out so hopefully he'll do well. Seems pretty keen so touch wood.

Sounds like a plan...

Stanley bud.

Any more craic lads or has this gone cold?

Good luck bud. I've asked several times and nothing as yet. Your just up the road from me too.
